You can do both (sort of) through an ESG weighted ETF.
ESG stands for" Environment, Social, Governance", and represents the inclusion of these factors in the construction of the portfolio. This is actually quite a big trend in Finance these days, and it's reasonable to believe that ESG ETFs could even outperform the broader market if you think the trend will continue/accelerate.
I should say, these funds don't always completely remove exposure to coal companies (for example), but would at the very least down-weight them relative to a broader market index.
